Open Baffle x box (BD-Design)
hello Bert
could you describe sound differences between bass built in in a box, and open baffle ? how can the bass go deep in a open baffle ? Is it true that in a OB there are less colorations due to no box ?

Hi Angelo,
could you describe sound differences between bass built in in a box, and
open baffle ? how can the bass go deep in a open baffle ? Is it true that
in a OB there are less colorations due to no box ?
Shouldn't you finish and learn more about your first project before you start exploring other systems? 
All depends on the design of the box and the panel.... you can create a worse sounding open baffle system compared to a good designed and well build "boxed" system.
You'll have a bigger change to get "cleaner" bass from an open panel but in return you will get more distortion from the driver as it needs to move a lot to compensate for the loss in bass (cancellation) and more power to handle.
Everything is a compromise in speakerland...
Ciao,
Bert
